wow

Wow, just wow! I fell in love with Gabby and Maddox from minute one. You could tell she was a strong person when she didn’t put up with Preston‘s antics. The fact that she only had her grandmother and sisters support through her life is so sad, but she learned to be a good person, even with their bad influence. I Love the way she stood up to her parents and put them in their place. Even though Maddox has had some bad experiences in his life, he took them and made his best life.. That best life now includes Gabby. He loves and supports her with everything. Hope to have more in future books with them.

I really enjoyed meeting and learning more about Maddox in Zach’s story so to be able to live through his happily ever after was a sweet treat.
